Hello everyone,

I had a question i was hoping someone could help me with. I have two large data sets in Excel. A-E and G-K. I need to see if the data in Columns B,C,D and E match the data in columns H,I,J and K. If so I would like a new sheet or workbook to hold the matches and those that do not match to be put at the bottom of the table. I have tried with Fuzzy Lookup and it worked but the data that did not have a match was deleted. Does anyone know why it was deleted or a way to keep that data after fuzzylookup has done its job? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Waterfall charts in Excel?
Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.
Here is how I have done it in the past.

Paste both data sets onto an seperate sheet below each other. Use the Autofilter to delete all duplicate records based on all the columns A-E. And you will have your desired outcome.

Let me know if you have any questions.
